And therein lies the problem.

Even at ISO 800 on a sunny day, I'm shooting wide open at f11, at a
mere 1/125th of a second. And that's just not fast enough for me, even
with IS.

I have got a few usable images using the 100-400 + 2xII. But nothing I
couldn't have got using a 1.4x and cropping a bit.
